How about if the main link (or the mail server) goes down and could not
e-mail the paging company? What I have in mind is a modem dialling the
alphanumeric gateway number of the paging company instead of passing it
through e-mail.

Their system is capable of both email and webbased paging.
Assuming your pager number is 754321, you can use
mail -s "WARNING! Cannot nail root!" [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Alternatively, you can also use [EMAIL PROTECTED]
The only limitation being that your subject line should not exceed 100
chracters or else, the message will be redirected to your fax mailbox.
Just FYI, the web based pager is at http://www.infopage.com.ph and can be
used by any browser you happen to have, be it Mozilla or Lynx.
